Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Ok. Thanks scottyb for the clarification. I have not tested the motor so I will give all of that a try tonight. I have also reset the OBC in hopes of some dumb luck and got no where. I also tested the voltage across the solenoid and got something like 19.8v? Don't know if that means anything, but I would have thought coming directly off the battery pack there would be a difference of 50.8v across the solenoid? But I will give your suggestions a try and see what I get.

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Remove the solenoid resistor for testing. Put it back once the cart is running.
When the solenoid clicks you should read 50v between the controller B+ and B-. (this voltage will bleed off the controller in 30-45 seconds when the control is turned off.) |

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Checked with the volt meter hooked up to the neg battery terminal and the pos hooked up to the 1 pin on the controller. No voltage measurement when the solenoid clicks. Checked the 2&3 pins and right at 5k ohms. So I'm guessing my problem is no voltage to the 1 pin?

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Any luck Adam? I am going to head home early from work today and try to tackle my problems, with my cart. Hopefully I can get them resolved...

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Ok I kinda think what I did last may have been wrong and gave me some false tests results. Here's what I did:
1-Disconnected the wire to the 1 pin. Touched the volt meter to the 1 pin and the neg terminal on the battery pack and pushed the pedal. Got no voltage. 2- Connected volt meter to pins 2&3. Got 5k ohms. I think both of these were wrong ways to do it. What I did tonight: 1- Hooked up the volt meter to pin 1 with the wire still attached to the pin and the neg activation side of the solenoid and pushed the pedal. Got full pack voltage. 2- Hooked up the volt meter to the wires that went to pins 2&3 with them disconnected from the pins. Pushed the pedal and got about 2k ohms. 3- Hooked up the motor both ways indicated for a series motor and the motor ran each way. 4- Hooked up the volt meter to B+ and B- on the controller and pushed the pedal. Got full pack voltage. Any other suggestions? Or am I completely out in left field with the way I'm testing everything? |

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Bump, any luck Adam? I haven't had time to work on mine since I spent an hour on the phone with Scotty B...

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
No luck so far. Re-checked all my new cables last night and everything is hooked up per scottyb's diagram. If you have any luck this weekend, please pass along the knowledge. If I don't get this thing out of the wife's parking spot in the garage soon, I may be looking for a new place to live!

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
I'm confused you posted ???
" 3- Hooked up the motor both ways indicated for a series motor and the motor ran each way. " or did you mean didn't? please CLARIFY motors runs or no? 1. ANSWER = So - here's what we need to know ... Does the solenoid click when you try to go? 2. ANSWER = You posted " 1-Disconnected the wire to the 1 pin. Touched the volt meter to the 1 pin and the neg terminal on the battery pack and pushed the pedal. Got no voltage. " Then later you posted wire reads 48v when connected to control? But that won't matter so that looks like an intermittent reading (connection)? Test that again on or off the control. It should read 48v when you press the gas with key on + in gear. 3. ANSWER = Now - ohms at pin 2 and 3 Remove from control, plug tester into them, 5k pedal up and close to 0 when down. Your results? 4.ANSWER = That will give us a solid place to work from. I'll check back later. |

Re: 95 ds clicks but won't move?
Thanks for the response scottyb, and to clarify:
1- when I hooked the motor up directly to 24v it DOES run 2- when I push the pedal the solenoid DOES click 3- the voltage at pin 1 reads 50.3v consistently 4- when I removed the wires that go into pins 2&3 and hook the meter up to the wires (not the pins on the back of the controller) I have 0 ohms when I first push the pedal and it increases to about 2k ohms with the pedal on the floor. This was with the cart in forward. Sounds like this may be my issue? |
